Has anyone heard anything on the 2008 blanket run? Just wandrering whether to get out the moth balls or not?
Yup, December 6th. Starts at GodSpeed at 8:00AM. It's for a good cause and don't forget to bring a blanket. Thom should be posting up something soon here.
Its close enought I will post some info. Some really cool places lined up this year, so if you have been in the past, there are some new, and some really good returns... Here is the info, as always i really appreciate everyones participation. This is the sixth year and so far we have been able to donate well over 600 blankets, thank you.
It begins at God Speed but will be traveling to other shops. I know we are going to the Cluster Busters Club House for a lunch stop. There are other places on the schedule but I believe Thom is withholding this info because in the past there have been shops back out in the last minute and he had already advertised their shop and then people *****ed and complained about not getting to go somewhere. This is a good cause and is always allot of fun. The cause is really the focal point, not where we get to go. Visiting the shops along the route is just a big bonus. See you all Saturday. Bundle up, it will be cold.
I just got word that I will have to work all weekend so I will not be attending this year. I thought I had it worked out to just be in here Sunday but it looks like it is going to be Saturday also. You guys have fun, and try to stay warm!

Head south on 267 till you get to 136 (cvs&walgreens on corners) turn right (west) go one mile. First left you can make is Mardale (lots of greens city signs) then go to Johnson lane turn left and you will see the shop a block down. 454 Johnson Lane Brownsburg, In 46112 317.858.1782 Will be be going to Jerry Baker's Shop he was in the latest Hot Rod, Hot Rod Deluxe and Rodders Journal for restoring the Burke-Laster Streamliner that started the 60th Bonneville meet this last summer. And some other amazing shops/collections this year will be really good. Thanks

Contact Thom, at www.godspeedrides.com He is the guy who puts it on. He may know of someone who has pictures if he does not have them him self.
Hey guys, just came across this thread. First off, thanks to GodSpeed (who I believe sponsered this event). Also thanks to Don Shumaker Racing, Bruce Litton, Cluster Busters Car Club (for a wonderful lunch), Hammer Art and Jerry Weeks Baker (I hope I did not forget anyone) for putting on such a awesome event. To those of you who stated above that you should do something like this, I would encourage it. Great relief from the cabin fever and supports a great cause. I did take a few photos with my older camera at Don Shumaker Racing and Cluster Busters club house. They are sort of low quality, but I will add at album at the following link.... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/album.php?albumid=4847 Thanks Again Bill Bronson
